The home, designed to blend with the environment, has an open plan design with clever use of timber and glass to create the feeling that you are very close to nature.
The remodelled kitchen complete with butlers pantry takes in the water view and the very abundant garden and allows the entertainer to over-look the generous living areas and still be included in the conversation.
The bathroom is designed to bring nature indoors allowing you to completely relax and immerse yourself in serenity.
The upstairs bedrooms each looks out to the surrounding bushland, the main to the water view, and are connected by a spacious study and home theatre area.
In the summer the windows and doors ensure you have a cool and comfortable home and in the cooler months, the wood heater radiates throughout the home offering a cosiness you will love.
There is enough character and quirkiness to keep you interested and the use of local crafted timbers leaves you knowing your home is unique and inviting.
